Cellular Phone Forum / Providers / T-Mobile / March 2007Call Blocking
Can I block my cell number from showing up on Caller ID the way I can with my land based phone? If so, how do I do it. Thanks, Doug >Can I block my cell number from showing up on Caller ID the way I can >with my land based phone?

On Verizon and Cingular dialing *67 followed by the number does it, which I think is the same as my landline.

You might try adding *67 in front of the number you are dialing, or #31#. I've always found *67 to work on US phones but I think #31# might be the GSM standard prefix for doing the same thing. Dennis Ferguson > Can I block my cell number from showing up on Caller ID the way I can > with my land based phone? If so, how do I do it. Usually, yes. On Sprint and Verizon, I would dial *67 before a call to block caller id for that call only, just like on most landlines. I also had the option of calling and turning on permanent caller-id block, in which case I could dial *82 to let CID through for a certain call. My T-Mo phones have "hide caller id/show caller id" as a menu option, but T-Mo also has a * code to do it...
